18. A system comprising: one or more processors; memory; a first application stored in the memory; and a shared vault comprising a vault record storage section and a vault database, wherein the vault database is encrypted using a vault key, wherein the memory stores computer-executable instructions that, when executed by the one or more processors, cause the system to: receive, via the first application, user entropy from a user associated with the shared vault; decrypt a first vault key record associated with the shared vault using the user entropy to generate a first copy of the vault key; access, using the first copy of the vault key, the vault database to retrieve an unlock key, wherein the unlock key is operable to decrypt a second vault key record associated with the shared vault to generate a second copy of the vault key; and store the unlock key in first application memory associated with the first application.
